Glendronach 28 Year Old 1993 Cask #4197 Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

GlenDronach 28 Year Old 1993 Cask #4197 is a single cask Highland single malt from GlenDronach Distillery — hand-selected by the Master Blender from the distillery’s historic Forgue warehouses, drawn from a single Oloroso sherry puncheon from the 1993 vintage, bottled at natural cask strength of 52.9% ABV without chill filtration and in natural colour.

Cask #4197 is a companion single-cask bottling to Cask #4195 from the same 1993 vintage year — both from single Oloroso puncheons, both non-chill filtered and naturally coloured, both at natural cask strength. The individual cask characters will differ meaningfully despite the same vintage and format, reflecting the unique maturation conditions and position of each puncheon in the Forgue warehouse. 28 years in a single Oloroso puncheon produces the concentrated dark chocolate, dried fruit, sweet sherry, oak, and warm spice character from GlenDronach’s most intensive sherry cask format.
